PREFATORY NOTE

In 1909 a number of friends of Professor Charles Otis Whitman planned a volume of the Journal of Morphology as an acknowledgment of the debt of American science to him as the founder and editor of the Journal.

A committee, consisting of Frank R. Lillie, Edwin G. Conkhn and Thomas H. Morgan, was appointed to receive contributions of articles from his former students and his associates of the Marine Biological Laboratory. It was decided that the numbers for the year 1911 should constitute a 'Whitman Volume.'

Professor Whitman died in 1910 before the first number was issued and the volume becomes a memorial to one who had a wide influence in the elevation of biological science.

As Whitman's ideals were broader than mere morphology, so the volume in the scope of its contents overlaps that field on all sides.

The articles which were accepted by the committee were so numerous and extensive that not all of them could be published during the present year, although the volume is far larger than usual; consequently some of them will appear, with proper acknowledgment, in the next volume of the Journal of Morphology.
